Love it, but the region is going to be in France, not Spain. And I highly doubt there'll be a section of the game based on Africa, probably just mainland France, and maybe some parts of Britain post game (although they might save Britain in general for another game).

We've seen a structure that is most likely based on the Eiffel Tower. Thats it. It's not going to be in France, because it's a fictional place. It might have different concepts and aspects of France, but it won't be in France. Just like how Unova wasn't in the U.S, but had a city or two based on cities in the U.S, rather than the whole region.

Well let's see, there's the Eiffel Tower...and the Palace of Versailles...oh yeah and the fact that Masuda visited France before the XY announcement. Unova was based on New York City to be exact, not the US in general. So we are 95% sure it will be in France, especially since we have many reasons to believe so.

So it's going to be called "Whatever the region name" in France? The tower we saw Pikachu on will be called "Eiffel Tower" and the Palace of Versailles will be called that too? No. It very well might be "based" on France but it's not going to be or be in France. And yes, Castelia City was based on New York City, not all of Unova. There were other New York and U.S references and concepts also.

Yeah, Unova wasn't completely based on NYC... This new region will likely have a city that resembles Paris or something at best.

I meant based on France. -_-.. And actually the design of Unova was based on New York City is what I meant, because that is true. And please tell what other places were inspired by the US? The region design and Castelia...that's about it.

yes it was
and all the other four regions are based on real locations in japan every city is a real landmark
so, i wouldn't be surprised, in fact i am expecting it, if this region is basically a chunk of france is not the whole thing

The map could be based purely on Paris itself, with a huge river running through it. We haven't really had the chance to explore a river before, as they just built huge bridges over them in Unova.

That would be really cool! Paris is definitely one of my favorite cities that I've researched, and it would be really cool to be able to explore a river! If it is based solely on Paris, I think it would be really cool if they incorporated fashion as part of it, although I don't know if that would work since they already did that in Unova.

I don't get why people keep on saying it is in France but it is based on France is the more likely.

that is pretty much the same thing
the first four region were all parts of japan and unova was in new york
also every city is based off of a real city/landmark
so this region being in or based on france will most likely happen

Whilst Unova was very industrial-looking, this looks very nature filled and, as many people have mentioned before, European. It definetly looks as it could be based of Europe, but even if it ain't I still prefer the greener,e grarasslandy feel it gives ofoff. Ooh, I can't wait~

Hopefully, this region will be fat bigger then the others. The 3ds has more capacity and stuff, an would show off the 3d images better. I'd like a kind off ruined factory, with sparks flying at you, tjrough the screen.

I hope it is bigger. I love the region designs pokemon makes. I have been studying France lately like I am sure some people are to maybe see how the region may look, and the areas around it, so maybe there will be a sort of region like Heartgold or Soulsilver, like there will be two leagues! Are just a different region to sail too.

Why does it have to be just France? I'm of the opinion that it could easily be Europe as a whole. I think it'd make sense. Europe is pretty big after all, and has a wide variety of animals to choose from. France on its own less so.

Then again, maybe that's just my English self wanting a region based on where I live in some way.

Lemme put it to you this way:

Japan isn't anywhere near as big as Europe, and they squeezed 5 regions out of that (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Almia). Why should they limit all of Europe to just one? They could easily make 20 regions based on Europe.

I personally think all the screenshots we got were to tease us and i'm going to predict they throw us a curveball of some sort like maybe the new area will be divided up into smaller regions or something along those lines. they need to switch it up I believe.

I wouldn't like something like that, it'd be harder to handle backtracking and exploration.

Well there'd obviously be a pokemon centre on each so flying would be easy, and the large amount of water would please a lot of people
It could also make it a lot less linear as you could decide which island to go to next (but the levels would remain the same and so you could be punished for rushing ahead)
